    There already have been great players that have transferred. Didn't want to sound too greedy. I hope it works out for us and the juice is worth the squeeze. I will be thrilled if we get these top transfers we have been waiting for.

    True but we could have already filled our roster out very well with the players that have been available.

    Well they can at least wait until our roster is set. That being said it would be nice to get all of our top players first and be filling in the supporting cast instead of the other way around.

    Well 46-49 needs to be the floor. It would be nice to be in the top 25 once in a while. I think that's what it's going to take for us to be a top 25 ranked program year in and out.

    If Schutt had done as well at Duke as Goode did here he would not be in the portal. Pass on Schutt.

    We have all the supporting cast we need. What we need now is 2 to 3 big time leads.

    Hated to miss out on Storr, especially to Kansas. As far as that goes weren't they ranked #1 at the beginning of the season this year. That didn't work out like they thought it would. šŸ˜Ž

    Not that I'm doubting what the insiders are saying but I'll believe it when I see it. We have had a few guys supposedly lined up that didn't happen.

    I don't know about anyone else but I hope our center to be named later is around 7 feet and has some skill on both sides of the ball. Don't want to get bullied underneath again this coming year. Need a legitimate rim protector.

    It does sound good but isn't there a saying about one in hand vs two in the bush.

    Well I don't know about obsession but it was like having a carrot dangled in front of you the way everyone was saying he was likely coming to Illinois. For those of us that would be thrilled to get him, it's hard to let go. As Pru says it really really is.
